Wings of Worth
featured poets
for this year's Philly Poetry Fest

We are so excited to announce that Wings of Worth will be our first featured poets at the 2nd Annual Philadelphia Poetry Festival this Saturday. Founded in 2011, Wings of Worth is relatively new to the Philadelphia scene, but their inspirational collective of 11 accomplished female poets is having a profound impact on audiences throughout the region! 

If you haven't seen them perform, you should! And Saturday is just your chance. They'll be going on around 1pm.

Here's a little bit more about Wings of Worth and the women who make up this powerful group!

Wings of Worth, founded by Jaz and Adriann “The Pen” Bautista, with the vision to inspire and uplift women of all ages, hues, socio-economic & cultural backgrounds to be their best “whole” selves. Wings of Worth exists to use poetically spoken word to inspire, uplift and encourage the world via, print, the worldwide web, guest/feature appearances and audio technology. They do this through collective live performances at Poetry Venues, Women’s Shelters, Prisons, Churches, Universities and anywhere where women may be gathered to hear this message of hope.
